Scratch 3.0
I think WebGL was the right choice here. 
I made a pi calc using the test GUI and it seems not to lag!
EDIT: FPS seems to drop a bit..

- Please increase the decimal digit limit! This will enable more precise calculation much more easily as the workaround is complex. (double float x = 2.124357561)
Create predicate variables in the data section. (bool y = false)

Why not use bignum as a workaround? I agree the rounding is somewhat annoying though.Both have workarounds, but these changes would make Scratch much more like C++ and other text coded languages.

Does this help?

Well, I don't see how this confuses a lot of users the first time they see this:

It shouldn't, but it makes Scratch a tiny bit slower, it's a bit more annoying to have to drag out two extra blocks, and some other programming languages have itsnipWell, I don't see how this confuses a lot of users the first time they see this:set [variable v] to ((variable) + (1))
// Workaround for:

I don't really see any downside to having workaroundable blocks other than that they clutter up the block palette
- Sheep_maker This is a kumquat-free signature. :P
This is my signature. It appears below all my posts. Discuss it on my profile, not the forums. Here's how to make your own.
.postsignature { overflow: auto; } .scratchblocks { overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; }

Scratch 3.0
I hope there's a way to change the format back to the 2.0 format, while still keeping all the new blocks/features/etc. The new version looks too childish for me. (Yes, I know Scratch is for kids, but teenagers/adults use it too)yeah, i'd like it too (since the 3.0 design seems to be pretty controversial)
I used to make stuff on here, now i just come on when i'm bored, don't expect anything from me now.

What about
https://llk.github.io/scratch-gui/
https://llk.github.io/scratch-gui/develop/
or are they equally as slow?
Projects on Scratch won't normally have recursive custom blocks. But parity with Scratch 2.0 is expected of Scratch 3. Are there other situations where you're seeing a slow-down?

Scratch 3.0 is slow, to the point where basic projects are unusable.
I tried running this very light project to test whether recursive custom blocks work.
It runs at about half the speed as scratch 2.0.
If you don't believe me, take a look: https://llk.github.io/scratch-vm/#138094831
I am in doubt of whether more intensive projects, even simple low-res raycasters will be playable in scratch 3.0.
Hi,
Scratch 3.0 is still in active development. The functionality, features, and performance you see now are not necessarily the final product. In the case of performance, we will be working on improving it.
When you do find differences in project behaviour in 2.0 vs. 3.0, it's useful to let us know - thanks for including the link. : )
Thanks.

There is still a lot of optimization work to be done (particularly with custom blocks). Our goal is for 3.0 to be as fast or faster than 2.0. In many areas this is already true, but we still have quite a bit of time before release to iron out some of these kinks.

I wish there was an x button on the box where you choose the type of block (motion, looks, sound, etc.).
